MikroTik Winbox 3.20 and below is vulnerable to man in the middle attacks. A man in the middle can downgrade the clients authentication protocol and recover the users username and MD5 hashed password.

Weakness

The product does not adequately verify the identity of actors at both ends of a communication channel, or does not adequately ensure the integrity of the channel, in a way that allows the channel to be accessed or influenced by an actor that is not an endpoint.
